the longest dream

Chapter 104 Knowledge
Early the next morning, Zhang Qing, Zhao Qiang and his party welcomed an unexpected guest, Wang Chang.

"Wow, staying at the Peninsula Hotel is at the same level as the Queen of England, Qingzi is really good enough!"

If you want to describe a greasy man, Wang Chang almost meets all the characteristics, the gold standard.

He piled up a fake smiling face, and reached out to shake Zhang Qing's hand.

Zhang Qing was having breakfast, so after shaking hands, he smiled and asked, "Director Wang, have you eaten yet?"

After Wang Chang was startled, he laughed and waved his hands and said, "It's really a mainland feature. When we met, we asked 'Have you eaten'?"

The last three words were spoken in Mandarin, which made Zhang Lan laugh beside him.

Zhang Qing sat down and ate two more mouthfuls, wiped his hands after eating the bread and milk, got up and asked Wang Chang to go downstairs to the tea room for a talk, only Zhao Qiang followed.

Seeing his calm demeanor, Wang Chang smacked his lips, a playful look flashed in his eyes, and he shrugged secretly.

As long as he can make money, whoever he is.

……

"Invite a script?"

Zhang Qing smiled and said, "Director Wang, you may have misunderstood, I never thought about being a screenwriter."

Wang Chang smiled clearly, and said: "I know, Uncle Liu said, you are born to be a boss, how can you be a screenwriter? Well, that's it. I want to shoot "Shooting the Condor". I don't want to shoot the whole thing, but I want to cut a part of it." It's OK to shoot."

Zhang Qing smiled and said, "I don't know which part Director Wang is going to shoot?"

Wang Chang smiled brighter and said, "Of course it's the Nine Yin Manual."

"Have eyesight."

Zhang Qing smiled, but that's all he said.

After Zhao Qiang poured tea at the side, she smiled at Wang Chang, "Brother Wang Chang, you may have misunderstood. Except for writing and composing, I will handle all other related matters, especially copyright matters. Brother Wang Chang wants to shoot " "Shooting the Condors", this idea is very good, if you have the opportunity to cooperate with our Du Juan film and television company, we will hire you as the film director, of course, after one year."

Wang Chang was very disappointed when he heard the words, and he still made a fart a year later. After "Shooting the Condors" became popular, there must be follow-up movies all over the street.

Shooting eagles, chickens, crows, anything you can think of, should be kept for safekeeping.

Hong Kong Island is such a piss, he is not so much exhausted, as he was hollowed out by followers.

After making a thousand kings, he became popular, and countless gambling films were released, making him unable to shoot.

After filming a nonsensical film that went viral, the entire Hong Kong city was full of shit.

No matter how smart he is, he can't afford to spend like this...

Wang Chang still wanted to say something, but Zhao Qiang smiled first: "Brother Wang Chang, before the TV series "Shooting the Condors" was broadcast, it was impossible to make a movie, and TVB and Uncle Ruolin couldn't possibly agree. But if you want to make a movie, it's not There is no way."

Hearing the voice, Wang Chang laughed and said, "Ah Qiang, you look more like an old Jianghu than I do. What are you doing, do you want me to help you film? My filming is very expensive."

Zhao Qiang smiled and said, "As long as Brother Wang Chang is willing to shoot with your heart, we can afford it."

Wang Chang said "Hey" when he heard the words, waved his hands and said, "You must shoot with your heart, and the rules of the world must be followed."

Zhao Qiang believed in a ghost, and said with a smile: "In the Hong Kong film industry, from director to actor, is the rule?"

Wang Chang waved his hands, sighed and smiled, "Ah Qiang, you only know one thing, not the other. In recent years, movies in Hong Kong City have been booming, and the box office has been getting higher and higher, breaking through [-] million. But it is getting less and less. Those toads in Wanwan would rather import blockbuster movies from the United States than restrict Hong Kong Island movies, especially after the reunification is confirmed. So now there are very few dramas, at least I don’t.

Speaking of which, there is one thing you should think about clearly. You all have mainland backgrounds, and the movies you make will definitely not be screened in Wanwan.It's not easy to get films in Nanyang now... Forget it, Ah Qiang, don't go in this muddy water.Why don't you sell the script to me, and I'll take it to Hong Kong City to get some money, and if there's meat, everyone can eat it together, what do you want? "

Zhao Qiang said with a smile: "You do the calculations, but you don't want to count the mainland?"

Wang Chang laughed and said, "The Hong Kong people are not blind to such a large market, how could they not see it? But after sending out so many people, they all shook their heads when they came back. They only put their hopes there. Too poor, unimaginably poor. And all the statistics show that there is really no hope there. Ah Qiang, Qingzai’s books are so popular in Hong Kong Island. I heard that Zhong Sheng has sold his books to Nanyang. The sales over there are also very popular. Why don't you come to Hong Kong Island to develop together, the sixth uncle thinks so highly of him, and he will surely have a lucky star in the future and make a fortune."

Zhao Qiang wanted to say something else, but Zhang Qing stood up and stretched out his hand and said, "Director Wang, although it's a pity that we can't cooperate, but I have always admired Director Wang's works, and I think Director Wang made commercial films in Hong Kong into an artistic realm. The master. I hope to have the opportunity in the future to witness Wang Dao's masterpiece again."

Seeing him posing this way to see off the guests, Wang Chang was a little dumbfounded, and wanted to talk. It can be seen that Zhang Qing was so desperate that he didn't know how to speak for a while.

Fortunately, seeing that Zhang Qing was about to leave without looking back, Wang Chang suddenly called out: "Qingzi, my old man asked you to come to my house at night, and he found you a house for rent."

"Okay, I'll visit tonight."

……

"Damn, what are you pulling! Damn Daluzi, smelly..."

All the way back home, Wang Chang was still cursing.

It's just that he didn't expect that Wang Ruolin didn't go to the set today, but was at home.

Before he could finish cursing, seeing Wang Ruolin staring at him coldly, Wang Chang quickly laughed and said, "Hey, old man, why haven't you gone to work yet?"

Wang Ruolin stared and said, "What were you scolding just now?"

Wang Chang knew that Wang Ruolin didn't like him recently, and he also knew that he was worried about him, so he didn't hide anything, told what happened in the morning, and finally complained: "Old Dou, you are too exaggerated, right? A continent Boy, writing a novel is coming to an end, what kind of movies does he know?"

"Snapped!"

A newspaper was thrown on his head, and Wang Ruolin scolded: "You know people better than Uncle Liu? Even if he doesn't understand now, he can't learn? The novel is so well written, and the composition is the most beautiful. Such a person Why can't you write a movie? Also, I want you to learn from Qing Zai how to do things in a down-to-earth way, and be a down-to-earth person. How much older are you than him, and you are so smart, why are you messing around like this today? Convinced! Uncle Liu appreciates him so much, is it because he can write books?"

Seeing that Wang Chang just lowered his head, but obviously couldn't listen, Wang Ruolin shook his head and said, "It's useless to talk too much. You don't want to go anywhere for the next two months, and don't make those salty movies anymore. Follow me into the set."

Wang Chang was very anxious when he heard the words. Although he had earned a lot these years, he spent even more, and he often went to Haojing to gamble. With my current status, I won't shoot salty and wet movies.

If he really had to stop working for two months, he was not afraid of starving to death, but of being beheaded to death by usury.

It's just that he didn't dare to tell Wang Ruolin about these bad things, he just said: "Old Dou, "Shooting the Condor" is finished, what do you want to shoot? Why don't you let Qingzai follow me, watch me start the movie, and let him be an actor?" The director's assistant learns a lot."

Wang Ruolin laughed angrily when he heard this, and said, "Go to shoot a salty film with you? You, you have been in the arena for more than ten years, I think you are for nothing. What kind of person in the arena is the most Is it money? Is it possible to play? Let me tell you, it is brain-eating. You, you have no shortage of small cleverness, but you don’t have any big cleverness. Oh, forget it, don’t waste saliva on you , you will understand after watching it for a few more days.”

In fact, he is not sure whether Zhang Qing can write a good movie.But Zhang Qing fell into the eyes of Qiao Beiyan and Li Fangjie, and Qiao Beiyan opened his mouth to support Zhang Qing's filming. This was the number one opportunity given by God.

Even Wang Chang couldn't see this opportunity. It can be seen that he has spent so many years in the arena for nothing, bad boy!
……

Central.

When I first arrived on Hong Kong Island, I couldn't see anything except densely packed tall buildings.

But when you arrive in Central, you can truly see what it means to be extremely prosperous after being there.

Shops with various decorations to the level of extravagance, gold, silver, antiques and jade, clothing, food, housing and transportation, as large as car and yacht showrooms, as small as barbecued pork for breakfast, seem to be everything in this world.

Not to mention that Zhang Lanwang was dumbfounded, even Zhang Qing felt it was an eye-opener.

Compared with the lower mainland, even Pingjing is hard to come by.

However, after all, the humanities are much worse.

It could be seen that a group of people came from the mainland, and most of the shop assistants looked down from above.

Even if there is no rudeness, the indifference and defensiveness are chilling.

It seems that if you let them touch it, it will make things dirty, and you will stare at their every move.

I didn't enjoy walking around...

"Brother, they look down on people so much."

While sitting and resting on a stone bench at the corner of the street, Zhang Lan said very unhappily.

Zhang Qing smiled and said: "You care about these things now because our mainland is not rich and strong. When we become strong, it will only be funny to see them like this again."

Zhang Lan couldn't understand, and said frustratedly: "When will we be able to do this? I don't think it's possible."

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "A year ago, do you think you will come to Hong Kong City to see these things?"

Zhang Lan blurted out: "How is it possible? Back then I didn't even dare to think about this..."

After she finished speaking, she understood, and laughed.

"When you go back tomorrow, study hard. Sister Zhao will help you find a tutor and make up lessons. In addition to homework, you also need to read more books. I have a lot of books in my study. Sister Hu Quan bought them without opening them. As a decoration, you can use it to read. Do you know what is the use of reading?"

On the streets of Central, where the air is filled with the smell of money, Zhang Qing looked at his sister and said with a smile.

Zhang Lan said, "Like brother?"

Zhang Qing smiled and said: "No. Without reading more, you can understand a little more. Those shop assistants are so rude because they don't read much and don't know the word self-cultivation. If you don't read much, even if you dress nicely, No matter how high-end the place you stay in, it’s just an empty vase.”

After Hua Die finished drinking the soda, he smiled and said, "You are such a good brother, you never forget to teach your sister."

Zhang Qing smiled and said: "She spends too much time playing, so I only have this little time to say a few more words."

For this younger sister, he always felt a little indebted.

Not only did I go to the mainland for three years to study high school, but I also studied in the county for junior high school, so I spent six years outside. During these six years, Zhang Lan fed the chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs at home.

Speaking of which, a large part of his tuition and living expenses was provided by his younger sister.

Six years ago, Zhang Lanxu was less than seven years old...

For Zhang Lan, not only will he be rich in life, but also in upbringing, he is more willing to spend energy and thought on cultivating her to become an excellent person.

Zhao Qiang and Wang Zitong came out of a leather bag shop after shopping, and saw Zhang Qing sitting here talking, they stepped forward and said, "The Hong Kong Stock Exchange is in front, go and have a look?"

The Hong Kong Stock Exchange is located on the 12th floor of the International Finance Center Phase I, No. [-] Harbor View Street, Central, where countless wealth is gathered.

Of course Zhang Qing was interested. After asking Wang Zitong and Huadie to take Zhang Lan to eat delicious food, he and Zhao Qiang went there...

PS: I have just scratched the surface of stock trading and so on, there is no space...
